It should be stated that up to this date certified milk and market 
milk were judged by different standards; hence it is owing to this fact 
and not to inferiority that the former has a lower average score than 
the market milk. During 1910 new score cards for milk and cream 
were devised, which gave greater weight to the bacterial count and 
less to flavor and chemical composition. The results of the com- 
petitions during the use of the second form of score card are as 
follows :
